Deep Japan: This is a Side of Nara You Have Never Seen!
Book a spot at Kitsune TODAY: bit.ly/4aGi0aG
In this episode, Shizuka discovers a quiet side of Nara! With the tourism booming and touristic places becoming overcrowded, sometimes you just want to be alone and enjoy a moment of zen! Well these places in Nara give you just that!
The trip starts by a visit to a quaint little town Oji, famous for its cute mascot Yukimaru. Here you can visit a Daruma temple to learn of its meaning and even paint your own little daruma. The temple has a beautiful garden where one can enjoy freshly whisked matcha while looking at the zen garden.
Shizuka then finds a local hidden gem: Oji ramen! The owner has been making ramen for 40 years and he crafts a bowl of ramen that's truly remarkable!
Back in Nara’s old town, Shizuka wanders through its alleyways to find a stylish restaurant Kitsune, where you can try some of the most delectable sukiyaki, featuring local wagyu beef..
Enjoy the moment of peace, away from the crowds in Nara!

Shiiiiiizyyyy bowing front of a deer yaay! No more cuteness available atm for sure
Thank you for this. I've been married to my Japanese wife for 20 years with a 16 yr old son and we stop by Nara where she is from. Yes, I know that area by Nara station. It's like walking back in time. Some of the best food on the planet. Keep the travel blog going and we are fans.

I am so overwhelmed with your presentations and as a fan of ramen (I love the little shops) you have again enticed my taste buds. The sukiyaki looks so wonderful as well, ...thank goodness I had already eaten before viewing this. But it's not going to stop me from thinking of it.

Great video! Please, a little less food and much more Japan travel.
Kyoto is insane with tourism right now. Even the locals are extremely fatigued, unfortunate they get 2 extremes, either absolutely nothing during COVID, or half the world going to Kyoto all at once. Please AVOID the main cities when travelling to Japan and do not LITER! The littering is getting out of control.
I'm not sure whether Bodhidharma had been to Japan, he was in China then. Nonetheless, the Yukimaru story is very interesting.

The Tendai sect of Buddhism has a myth that he did not return to India from China but instead travelled to Japan and met with Prince Shotoku. Then again they also believe he cut his eyelids off to avoid falling asleep during meditation and when they fell to the ground they sprouted the first green tea plants so who knows what is true. ;)
Thanks again byfood. Was at Nara just last year. The deer's are sooo adorable and friendly. Hope Shiz didn't stepped on any deer poop ! 💩💩💩

In this episode Shizuka recovering from tongue surgery after a new one was donated by a family whose daughter died from liver poisoning, apparently had one too many fried oysters which produced an effect her new tongue warned her about and even after drinking all that Japanese Saki a quick dash back home was suggested by the producers.
Yes, I have seen that side of Japan. Please try to be more truthful in your titles in the future.
